Legal

This website (MotorZoo) is a product of and is designed, owned and operated by MotorZoo.com. MotorZoo provides a classified advertisement listing service. By using this website, you accept the terms of this Visitor Agreement. This is a legally binding agreement between you (the Visitor) and MotorZoo.

MotorZoo reserves the right to change the terms of this agreement from time to time. By continuing to use this website you (the Visitor), agree to any changes and agree to be bound by the terms of the agreement, as modified. MotorZoo may make changes to any portion of this website, at any time. All material that appears on MotorZoo is for information purposes only. Despite efforts to provide useful and accurate information, errors may appear from time to time. Before purchasing goods or services from Sellers that appear on MotorZoo, you (the Visitor) should confirm with the Seller any information (including the price). MotorZoo is not responsible for, and does not guarantee the availability, price, content or performance of any such goods or services, or agreements entered into from Sellers listed on the MotorZoo website. You (the Visitor) agree that the Seller is not liable for content or any errors in content (including the price) found on MotorZoo.

Buying

MotorZoo is a vehicle listing and information service that brings together buyers and sellers of new and used vehicles. Information about a particular vehicle is supplied by the Seller, not by MotorZoo. The price and other terms of any sale remain subject to direct negotiation between the buyer and the Seller, and are not the responsibility of MotorZoo. Although it is the hope of MotorZoo, that all who come to this website will act honourably and treat each other fairly, we can't verify the information that a Seller provides to us or guarantee the vehicles they offer.

Selling

By listing a vehicle for sale on MotorZoo, you agree to use the e-mail addresses of those responding to your listing only for purposes of communicating with them about the potential sale of that vehicle and that you will not engage in sending them further unsolicited e-mail (spamming) and that you will cease communications with them if they request you to do so.

MotorZoo can not assure the seller of a vehicle that the check/cheque he/she gets from the buyer isn't going to bounce. When using this website to find a buyer for your vehicle or a vehicle you can buy, we urge you to use the same common sense as you would use if selling a vehicle through, or responding to, a classified advertisement in the newspaper. The vast majority of Buyer/Seller transactions at MotorZoo go smoothly, but it is always prudent to use common sense when selling your vehicle. Here are some simple tips to follow:

Ignore buyer inquires that suggest taking over your monthly car payments if the vehicle you are selling is financed.

Ignore ALL inquires that suggest shipping your vehicle to another country, especially African countries (Nigeria is the most prolific). Generally we have found that this type of request is a scam.

Do not enter into any unusual deals or transactions such as check/cheque cashing. DO NOT accept a larger check/cheque than the asking price of your vehicle and then pay the buyer the balance.

If you do accept a personal check/cheque, cashiers check, bankers' draft, or money order, DO NOT release your vehicle or your vehicle's registration or ownership documents to the buyer until the funds have been deposited and cleared by your bank.

When advertising a vehicle for sale through MotorZoo, you must have possession of the actual vehicle listed and the ability to transfer the vehicle's title.

Responsibility for the information contained in listings lies with each Seller and not with MotorZoo. MotorZoo cannot monitor all the listings posted to our website, we reserve the right to delete, move, or edit any listings or other postings that come to our attention that we consider unacceptable or inappropriate, whether for legal or other reasons.

By using MotorZoo you agree not to post or transmit any defamatory, racist, abusive, obscene, threatening, misleading, or illegal material, or any other material that infringes on the rights of others or interferes with the ability of others to enjoy MotorZoo.

You agree not to use information concerning other users of MotorZoo, or the vehicles they've listed or searched for on this website (including listing information, e-mail addresses, and other information), for any purpose other than to explore the potential purchase or sale of a listed vehicle.

By submitting material to MotorZoo, you are representing that you are the owner of the material, or are making your submission with the explicit consent of the owner. By submitting material to MotorZoo you are permanently granting MotorZoo All Rights to the material, including the Right to modify the material, to use it commercially, and to maintain the material in an archive.
